Into
the Automatic Test Equipment industry the Standard Test Data Format is the most
commonly used data format for storing measurement data in digital format.
The STDF file format is specified by the Tester manufacturer Teradyne.
It is an universal dataformat which could be used for almost any test application
into the whole ATE industry.
Using one format gives a lot of advantage for
lining up the process of creating, storing and handling measurement data.
Data of different tester types could be compared to see if tests are correlating.
The STDF-file format is very compact and saves storage space.
The data from almost every tester type could be converted to this STDF-format.
There are tester types which directly generate this STDF file format.
The STDF-file format is one of the available input
formats of SEDana.
With SEDana, a data analysis tool from Salland Engineering, it is possible to
do a statistical analysis on raw tester data just on the test floor.
It is based on the practical experience of test and production engineers who
are working in the semiconductor industry.
SEDana is the fastest and shortest possible connection between raw data and
a good statistical analysis on the test floor.
SEDana is a product of Salland Engineering the Netherlands. Click here for SEDana product information.
